The first of the warmongers, Chairman Yang, was captured and interrogated in this glorious year.
He tried to hide an alien artifact in the deepest recesses of his hideout, but drone empaths could locate it. What undreamt of technology might be hidden within this marvelous device ?

[TigToad]

Yes sir. They're coming online now. Excellent. The air force we've assembled will be able to protect our skies as well as bring the war to the Drones should they continue on this genocidal course of action.

Excellent indeed. We may die to the last, but we will take that egocentric, unreasonable, ignorant Drone with us.

[Misotu]

We will not be bullied, nor ordered to disband our military. We have gassed two Drone bases this turn and our loyal pactmate Sven has joined the fray ...

2173 to the CyC.

[TigToad]

Ok Paul.. you're nearing your last chance if you want to stop the drones... once they've finished us off you're next. If you want allies when war comes to you... better start preparing now. My days, at least, are numbered.

[Misotu]

Gaian troops destroyed a Drone base, and have gassed two others. We wonder where the Foreman will next land his interceptors?

the "drone" base was the old HiveHQ - would have been a probe action/my datalinks this year :-p ~~~

otherwise, it was a bad year. The pirates and planet (sic !) striking with a vengeance, too ! The rest of the Knechts territory is under a thick cloud of nervegas, you atrocious fiends. Now would be a good time for the consciousness to send some assistance.

[TigToad]

Another drone base gassed from 5-2... however I do not see it as possible for the Peacekeepers to survive the eventual tide of Drone military units. We have vowed however to die fighting the good fight against the treachous drones.

Well, former Hive base or not, it was still a Drone base when it fell

Like the PKs, the Gaians are not terribly optimistic about the outcome of this war. But we've always felt that aggression should be met with aggression. And anyway, mindworms frolic in nerve gas

2175 is on its way to the Prime Function. Humble apologies for the long delay - I got behind on my games this week and this one got missed in the rush.

2175 passed on to Misotu.

[Misotu]

Gaian troops obliterated 2 Drone bases and gassed a former Hive base to extinction.

We note that the Prime Function has now joined battle - an unfortunate and unwelcome development ...
